Three Kingdoms: I rely on system loopholes to survive

Zhong Ping walked around Zhong Fu's house. Although he couldn't stop panicking in his heart, he could still maintain his composure on his face.

The person who came to entertain him was Diao Chan. According to the relationship between Zhong Ping and Zhong Shao, Zhong Ping should respectfully address Diao Chan as "cousin-in-law."

He was currently sitting in the guest room, seemingly in front of Diao Chan, but actually his mind was filled with the safety of Zang Ji, and he didn't know where his thoughts had gone. He always slowed down a few beats when talking to Diao Chan. This was really a very rude move. , however Tanehira never noticed.

Diao Chan was good at observing people's thoughts, and she made some guesses when she saw what happened. She was a smart woman, and while she gradually stopped talking, she motioned with her eyes to the maids standing around to go to the front of the hall to see if the master had returned.

Zhongping was immersed in his own thoughts, thinking about the power he could borrow now, and trying to figure out a way out for Zhongping in his mind.

He knew his father's character very well. As early as when Xu Tianwei and Zhongping chose to be patient, Zhongping had predicted that this day would happen.

Zhong Ping never thought that he could save Zhong Ji's life by rewriting the Yidai Edict. As long as Liu Xie was humiliated at the hands of Cao Cao, the gentleman's sword on Zhong Ji's waist would never stop moving towards him. Cao Cao's heart.

Ever since he got the brocade clothes and jade belt from Liu Xie, Zhong Ping just stayed at home every day and never went out when he had nothing to do. On the surface, he continued to create a persona that was neither social nor party. He also knew that Cao Cao's eyes were on him. So he acted more cautiously.

The only person who contacted him was Xu Shao, who talked with everyone everywhere.

In fact, after Zhongping knew that the secret edict was not in his hands, he had been thinking about one thing. From Chang'an in the past to Yanzhou today, who was the person behind it who was adding fuel to the flames and stirring up a pool of filth?
Zhongping never thinks that he is a smart person. All he can rely on is the superficial understanding of historical figures and events by a later generation. Although everything changes with time and cannot be copied, for Zhongping, it is also It's enough.

His eyes were fixed on the lucky card in the system column. At this point, even a self-proclaimed materialist had to pray to God and worship Buddha in his heart.

"...Bo Heng?"

Zhong Shao received the news from his superiors at the government office. He hurriedly handled the official business and then hurried back. Because he was walking too fast and couldn't take care of the tidying up, he rarely looked a little embarrassed.

"Cousin, I know that you are friendly with Ma Teng, the governor of Xiliang. I wonder if I can use his name to spread rumors in Xudu. I only say that Dong Cheng conspired with Ma Teng to assassinate Cao Cao and rescue the emperor."

Zhong Ping stared at Zhong Shao with bright eyes.

There was a little surprise in Zhong Shao's eyes, and he was not sure what Zhong Ping's intention was for a moment, but he also knew Zhong Ping's character. If he didn't really have to force himself, Zhong Ping would definitely not ask for it on himself. After a slight thought in his mind, Zhong Shao also guessed that this matter must be related to Zhong Ji.

He looked sharply and wiped the sweat from his forehead: "We are in a hurry, so I'm afraid it won't spread too widely. I'll try my best."

After hearing this, Zhong Ping felt relieved, bowed deeply, and said gratefully: "Thank you very much, cousin, for your help. This matter is a bit troublesome, so Ping can't say much. My cousin must keep concealment as the top priority in his actions. When this matter is settled, I will Brother, I must make a clear connection with my father and son, if necessary..."

He lowered his head and thought for a moment before swallowing the second half of the sentence. Although Zhong Ping had basically never interacted with Zhong Shao, he knew that his cousin was a true gentleman. If Zhong Ping really said that he would advise Zhong Shao to Cao Cao's words of surrender in order to save his life were an insult to him.

Seeing that Zhong Shao agreed, Zhong Ping felt somewhat relieved and hurriedly left Zhong Fu's house. Zhong Ping covered it up again and immediately found Annan General Duan Xuan again.

Xu Shao helped him clear the relationship in advance, so Zhong Ping didn't wait long in front of Duan Xuan's house.

No matter how suspicious Duan Xuan was by nature, he couldn't bear the fact that Xu Shao was a fortune teller who was good at controlling human nature.

Zhong Ping, through Xu Shao's several conversations at Duan Cheng's house, had buried Duan Yan's suspicions about the people around Dong Cheng. This time, he came here to take advantage of Duan Yan's interactions with Dong Cheng when he was in Chang'an. Disharmony dragged him into this muddy water.

"Taishi Ling previously hinted that I pay attention to the counselors in my uncle's house. The meaning of it is really something that I still can't understand."

Duan Xuan nodded and motioned for Zhong Ping to sit down and strike first. His original intention was that Zhong Ping was the one asking for help, so he was already weak. He was the first to speak and suppressed it. In Zhong Ping's panic, he could only let himself take control.

Zhong Ping felt a strange secret of joy in his heart. He understood that Duan Xuan had been cleverly restrained by him. When the other party asked this question, the three-point confidence in his heart instantly increased to six points.

He sat down, with a smile on his face, but a heavy heart and a lot of thoughts: "The general once belonged to Dong Zhuo with Dong Cheng, so he probably knew what Dong Cheng was doing. The general didn't think that since Li Jue and Lu Bu attacked Chang'an, Dong Zhuo Are you a different person than before after what you have done?”

"It's precisely because I know what Uncle Guo is like that I don't believe there is anyone in this world who can make Uncle Guo obey his advice."

Duan Xuan answered calmly that he knew about the trouble between Zhongping and Dong Cheng, and also understood Zhongping's purpose. If Zhongping didn't want to embarrass Dong Cheng, how could he go into this muddy water.

"is it?"

Zhong Ping couldn't deny it, a sly look flashed in his eyes: "If that person was once Dong Zhuo's counselor, what if even the general listened to that person's plan and adopted Five Points?"

Duan Xuan's expression changed. After thinking for a moment, he suddenly realized something on his face. He moved his lips, but he was too surprised to make a sound.

"…You have some confidence."

Zhong Ping was keenly aware that Duan Yan had had such suspicions before. He pursed his lips and said in a respectful and firm tone: "I don't dare to say that I am sure, but now in Xudu, if the general is sure of that person's identity, he will What’s false can also come true.”

"It seems that Taishi Ling has predicted that Uncle Guo will never make a comeback, but... I wonder where Taishi Ling's words come from?"

Duan Xuan was wary of Xu Shaoshang, so how could he completely believe Zhong Ping's words. Zhongping knew that it was time for him to make a big announcement, but he still maintained the smile on his face and said with full confidence: "General, you should know that Your Majesty has given you three pieces of brocade clothes and jade belts, right?"

"Does your Majesty really have a secret edict?"

Duan Xuan stood up, and unknowingly, his attention was completely captured by Zhong Ping.

"true."

Zhong Ping nodded, but then said: "Everyone thinks that the edict is in my hands, but it is not the case. General, isn't it strange that if I really received your majesty's secret edict, how could I not tell Cao Cao to this day? Any action?"

"What's more, when I was living in Dongjun, I had to be taken care of by Cao Cao. The general thinks that compared to Dong Cheng, who has soldiers in his hands and is the uncle of the country, can I, a young man with little power, be able to shoulder this important task?"

"If the general doesn't believe it and waits in the palace, the capital will be in chaos within an hour."

"Taishi Ling means that Dong Cheng went to assassinate the thief Cao?"

Duan Xuan didn't know whether he believed it or not. He turned half sideways, his eyes not falling on Zhong Ping.

When Zhong Ping heard that he had changed his title, he had a general direction in his mind and continued to follow the draft he had made: "Although I have not received your Majesty's secret edict, I am fortunate enough to know about it. The general is a member of our clan brother Sanming of Liangzhou. First, he was given the honor to be sent to the country. If he were to be the pillar of the country, who else could be the pillar of the country? "

"My father and son have always been at odds with Dong Cheng. The general should have heard about it, but how can I dare to be selfish on this important matter? It's just that I can't trust Dong Cheng as a person. The general doesn't know. Dong accepted the order to eliminate thieves. Although I don't I thought he could accomplish it, but I couldn’t believe that he was so stupid! The day before the assassination, he leaked the news to his servants about such a major matter that was vital to His Majesty’s life!”

Zhong Ping displayed the most exquisite acting skills in his life. He retracted his previous foreshadowing of Xu Shao hinting that Duan Xuan was concerned about the counselors and servants in Dong Cheng's mansion.

"There was a slave in Dong Cheng's house, named Qin Qingtong, who had an affair with his maidservant...I can't say much about the reason. That slave wanted to inform Cao Cao. Fortunately, I was always paying attention and knew about it, otherwise...he How can Dong Cheng survive today?"

Zhong Ping spoke half-heartedly, but this information was enough for Duan Xuan to trust his words.

Duan Yan did find confirmation in his memory. When he was investigating the master of Dong Cheng's house, he had heard his subordinates mention the matter of the slaves and maids once. At that time, they just laughed and said that Dong Cheng's rule was ridiculous.

He simulated the scene described in Tanehira's words in his mind.

It was indeed something Dong Chenghui did.

"After this experience, I no longer dare to believe Dong Cheng. His Majesty is in dire straits. There is little hope that Dong Cheng can survive today. If he really listens to the advice of his subordinates and is smart, he can cause some trouble. I When I come to the general, I present Dong Cheng’s letter of surrender and ask the general to take action and take this opportunity to rescue your majesty!”

Zhongpei was thinking about his father, and tears flowed freely. Soon his face was covered with tears, looking at him as he wanted to be sincere and sincere.

Duan Xuan originally thought that Zhong Ping came to him to get rid of Dong Cheng, but he didn't expect that after going around and around, he actually used Dong Cheng's head to save Liu Xie, and he was filled with emotions for a while.

He considered himself a loyal man. Although he did not think that he could snatch the emperor from Cao Cao's millions of troops, if he could take this opportunity to remove Dong Cheng without endangering himself, he would also expose himself to the emperor. Face, he is still willing to do it.

Duan Xuan frowned and pondered for a long time, as if he was struggling in his heart. After a long time, he raised his head and looked at Zhong Ping: "I just waited for an hour. Am I not as good as Dong Cheng? If Dong Cheng really has the courage to fight with Cao Cao, I will send troops. What's the harm in helping each other? No matter whether Dong Cheng assassinates the Cao thief or not, the remnants of Dong Zhuo cannot be spared..."

Tanelei could see this person's plan at a glance, and he was probably planning to see what the situation would be like before taking sides, but so what?

"I have a plan, General, would you like to try it?"

"Oh? What's the best plan for Bo Heng?"

Duan Yan saw Zhong Ping's helpless look and guessed that the other party was also a dead horse and a living doctor, so he became interested.

"The general may wish to lead his troops to Dong Cheng's mansion after hearing about the chaos in the city. He only said that he found out that there were former counselors of Dong Zhuo in Dong Cheng's mansion who were hiding to cause chaos. Regardless of whether Dong Cheng was defeated or not, the general could use Dong Cheng's help. The reason for Cheng's collusion with Dong Zhuo is unclear, and he joins forces with Cao Cao to kill Dong Cheng. The battlefield is chaotic, and it is easy for the general to get close to Cao Cao. When Cao Cao is relaxed, the general will catch him by surprise, or attack him unprepared to remove this thief; Whether you organize your troops to attack; or you feel that you are invincible and stand still... You can advance and attack, retreat or defend. The best is to kill the thief directly, and the worst is to gain Cao Cao's trust and respect, which is not harmful to the general. "

Seeing Zhong Ping reach this point, Duan Yan hurriedly stepped forward to help Zhong Ping up: "I already understand Bo Heng's intention to kill thieves. I am a minister of the Han Dynasty, how can I make the thieves cause trouble? Bo Heng will wait for my news." "

Zhongping wiped his face with his sleeves and looked up again, his face full of sincere gratitude: "With the general's words, Ping can feel relieved."

He turned around and bowed to where the Emperor was. The moment he knelt on the ground, Zhong Ping felt a sense of joy that he had not seen for a long time.

李儒
董承
Even now that you've been plotting against me behind my back, it's time for you two to have a good taste of what it's like to make a mistake...

Zhongping quickly calmed down the expression on his face. He could not relax or neglect for a moment before taking Zhongji and escaping from Xudu.
